Hi Team,
We are using freetype-2.8.1. When we try to print the text characters ,
sometimes little top portion of text characters got stripped off. Pixel
size passed to FT library is 30. No issue is seen with freetype-2.5.2.
It is seen, ascent value returned from font metrics is not returned
properly from the ttdriver.c in recent versions of freetype. Please find
the code part below:
* static FT_Error*
* tt_size_request( FT_Size size,*
* FT_Size_Request req )*
* {*
*.......................*
* if ( FT_IS_SCALABLE( size->face ) )*
* {*
* error = tt_size_reset( ttsize, 0 ); //few metrics parameters like
ascent etc are changed locally in tt_size_reset() function, but not
updating the global size metrics. So, updates not getting reflected in
caller*
* ........................*
* }*
* }*
There is a line to update this in version 2.5.2. It looks this removal
happened as part of commit *bcc74f4dafee25ea89f1d3144646cba7e30f9908*. Do
we have any specific reason for this removal?. Please clarify this.
Thanks.
Regards,
Madan
